Just FYI...Mike Vidafar posted on his blog about the website being hacked:

Thanks for that link. I can't imagine how it must feel to have this happen. I was the editor for an online scientific journal, and I was glad we had the resources of the university at our disposal.
I have to say that blog post upset me. He's not contacted me, despite three emails to him, nor has he responded to the other people (at least not in his blog) who commented on the post. Contacting the authors is the first thing I'd do if my journal had gone down with accepted papers in the queue. I don't expect him to be a website wizz (I wasn't for my journal!) but it seems he has nobody knowledgeable working for him. He doesn't seem to be in any hurry to fix the situation other than to set up a PayPal account to take donations. As Uncle Jim said, it's probably no great loss if I move my story on to a different market.
